Hall argues that only by understanding the \u003ci\u003eOpus Postumum \u003c\/i\u003ecan we fully comprehend both Kant's mature view as well as his Critical project. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn letters from 1798, Kant claims to have discovered a \"gap\" in the Critical philosophy that requires effecting a \"transition from the metaphysical foundations of natural science to physics\"; unfortunately, Kant does not make clear exactly what this gap is or how the transition is supposed to fill the gap. To resolve these issues, Hall draws on the \u003ci\u003eOpus Postumum\u003c\/i\u003e, arguing that Kant's transition project can solve certain perennial problems with the Critical philosophy. This volume provides a powerful alternative to all current interpretations of the \u003ci\u003eOpus Postumum\u003c\/i\u003e, arguing that Kant's transition project is best seen as the post-Critical culmination of his Critical philosophy. Hall carefully examines the deep connections between the \u003ci\u003eOpus Postumum\u003c\/i\u003e and the view Kant develops in the \u003ci\u003eCritique of Pure Reason\u003c\/i\u003e, to suggest that properly understanding the post-Critical Kant will significantly revise our view of Kant's Critical period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bryan Hall\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 113880214X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138802148\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/21\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.70d","brand":"Bryan Hall","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065369473279,"sku":"9781138802148","price":210.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_04b40574-5a76-48d1-bd9d-70536ad67eee.jpg?v=1768674750","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-post-critical-kant-bryan-hall-9781138802148","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
